Collapse, surrender to me!

Page 78

Grace thought for a moment and said.

"Any questions?"

"Nothing... I just remembered that with just physical strength, it was so fast that I couldn't see when it was launched. Apart from you, the only one left is the President..."

"You fought Bradley? Did you win or lose?"

"One move and you lose."

Edward spread his hands, there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

"He cut off my weapon. If he had cut off my neck, I would have died on the spot."

……

Perhaps it was because the two brothers were actually only a few years older than Grayshull.

So he seemed very lively along the way.

As a backward town, Oriel can even be said to be poor.

There are no tall buildings, basically just one or two-story earthen brick houses built in irregular patterns.

There is only one exception.

That is the tall and magnificent church and the missionary square.

The whole body is made of white marble.

This is also one of the reasons why the Leto Cult was able to gain a foothold so quickly.

Both the square and the church appeared overnight.

To the local residents who had never even seen an alchemist, this was no different from a miracle.

As a result, it attracted a large number of believers.

"What's the point of believing in these things? Even if there really are gods, why would they help you? Just because of your prayers?"

Edward walked into the church and said to the brown-haired girl who was praying under the huge statue.

“The conditions of equivalent exchange are never determined by subjective consciousness. In the eyes of truth, that is, God, human prayers are worthless and will not change anything.”

"That's the god you're talking about. God Leto is different."

The praying girl stood up and looked at the people who walked in after hearing this.

She was not angry at Edward's words, but spoke gently.

"My name is Rose, would you like to know the teachings of the Torre Cult?"

"...Thank you, but it's not necessary." Grayshu replied politely.

"That's a shame."

Rose said regretfully.

“It is a wonderful thing to believe in and worship God, and live in gratitude and hope.”

"sounds good."

Grayshu nodded in agreement.

Unlike Edward, who is an out-and-out atheist.

Grayshu is willing to believe in Kamisama.

If you believe in God, you can avoid disasters.

Grace wouldn't resist at all.

However, the other party must be a true God.

This Leto cult is fake.

Compared to Gresh's easy-going nature, Edward seemed a little aggressive.

"Do you really believe in bringing the dead back to life?"

He asked, but before Rose could answer, he interrupted himself.

Because Rose's expression already gave the answer.

"30 liters of water, 20 kilograms of carbon, 4 liters of ammonia, 1.5 kilograms of lime, 800 grams of phosphorus, 250 grams of salt, 100 grams of saltpeter, 80 grams of sulfur, 7.5 grams of fluorine, 5 grams of iron, 3 grams of silicon, and 15 other trace elements..."

"This is the body composition calculated based on an adult."

Edward sat on the bench and told the facts word by word.

"Although science has already understood this step, there has not been a single report of a successful human transmutation. If science can't do it, what can prayer do?!"

“Trust in prayer!”

The girl's originally gentle voice became sharp, with a tit-for-tat tone.

"If you take the right photo, your wish will come true!"

Edward laughed sarcastically: "Tsk, the materials I just mentioned can be bought by children with their pocket money. This is what cheap humans are like."

"You are blaspheming the Creator! You will be punished by God!"

"Alchemists are scientists, and they don't believe in the Creator! People like us who understand the principles of this world and pursue the truth are, in a sense, the closest to God."

"Are you comparing yourself to God?!" Luo Sai was angry and glared at him angrily. "You are too arrogant!"

……

"I feel like your brother and this believer are not on the same page...if they keep arguing like this, they'll probably end up fighting." Grayxiu whispered.

"what?"

Al was stunned for a moment.

"It's okay, brother won't lose in a fight!"

"……That's true."

Grayxiu smacked her lips, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Fortunately, Edward finally remembered that they were not here to quarrel, and his attitude immediately changed.

I went from being an atheist to someone who believes in God.

Of course, the purpose is only to sneak into the enemy.

Unfortunately, Edward didn't know that their whereabouts had been seen by everyone.

On a high platform across the square.

The bishop put away his monocular telescope.

He slapped his bald head hard.

Made a sound of annoyance.

"I knew that doing this would attract other alchemists, but I didn't expect two to come? No, according to the preparations, there should be three."

Fullmetal Alchemist is basically bound to the two Elric brothers.

There is also a person named Grace whom I have never seen before.

The people behind the bishop also broke out in cold sweat.

"How could we attract national-level alchemists? And two of them at once. Could it be that our plan was..."

"The military dogs' noses are still as sharp as ever."

The bishop frowned.

If it was just the Elric brothers, he could still find a way to solve it, but now there is also Grayshuin with unknown abilities, and things have suddenly become troublesome.

Chapter 87: Burying Yourself

"Bishop Cornello is waiting for you here..."

Rose brought the two of them to the depths of the church.

At this time, she still did not forget to persuade diligently.

"Even though I know you don't have much respect for the gods, the bishop is still willing to see you, so..."

"I know, I know."

Ai interrupted Rose impatiently.

He was too lazy to say anything else along the way.

The quarrel between atheists and charlatans... no, the quarrel between atheists and believers will never produce any results.

Just like what Grayshu said, the two people's train of thought are not in the same place.

"Do you feel something is wrong?"

Walking in the middle of the tall corridor of the church.

Alphonse asked Graysh in a low voice.

"Of course something is wrong. Didn't you notice that the further you go inside, the more guards there are around you?"

Grace said without thinking.

Normally speaking, there are of course the most guards on the periphery. After all, even if there are really enemies, they will come in from the outside.

Now that all these guards have gathered here, you can tell who they are going to deal with.

Soon, the guards led the group to an empty missionary square.

The missionary preached on the platform.

It was Bishop Cornello.

Judging from the appearance, this bald bishop with white eyebrows is not young. He has a smile on his face and squinted eyes, giving people a kind feeling.

It fits the image of a bishop in people's minds.

"Welcome to the holy order, Fullmetal Alchemist... and the unknown State Alchemist."

"Looking down on us from a high place, is this how you welcome us?" Edward choked the other person as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You can't say that. You are here to listen to the teachings."

Cornello responded calmly.

“There is nothing wrong with me preaching from a high place, because I am preaching on behalf of God and spreading his light to the world.”

Edward scoffed at this: "Oh? Then can you please tell me how the gods deceive believers through alchemy?"

"Don't confuse my miracle work with alchemy!"

"Still being stubborn? Then I'll just have to be rude to you!"

Edward pressed closer and closer to the bishop.

"It seems...you are really an unreasonable pagan."

Cornello's kind expression gradually turned cold.
